Does Nodlyn support BACnet/IP?

Compatibility answer

Yes — at the protocol level. Nodlyn can discover BACnet/IP endpoints and register them for visual workflows.

Discovery can probe BACnet/IP on your LAN; you can also set the device IP manually.

What BACnet/IP support means in Nodlyn

BACnet/IP shows up in HVAC, meters, and building controllers. Nodlyn can probe the LAN for BACnet devices or take a manual IP, then read analog/binary properties into workflows — temperature high → Slack, damper feedback → log, schedule → setpoint write.

This is building-automation focused, not a full BMS replacement. If you already run Metasys or similar, Nodlyn sits beside it as the automation glue for the properties you choose to expose.

This page is a compatibility check (supported or not, how you connect). Step-by-step tutorials live on the blog when linked below — so Google (and readers) get one clear “how-to” URL.

Example automations with BACnet/IP

• Room temp → HVAC alert
• Meter pulse → daily usage log
• Schedule → BACnet setpoint

Quick start for BACnet/IP

1. Open Discovery → Industrial, or add a BACnet node from the palette.
2. Scan or enter the controller address.
3. Read properties (analog/binary values) into your workflow.
4. Trigger alerts or write setpoints when conditions match.

Can Nodlyn auto-discover BACnet/IP devices?

Yes. Discovery can probe BACnet/IP on your LAN; you can also set the device IP manually. You can also add endpoints manually if discovery is empty.
